qr05_paper.pdf (May 2005) :: This was an updated paper
on parallelising a fuzzy qualitative reasoning engine, submitted to the QR Workshop 2005.

thesisproposal.pdf (May 2005) :: This is my Thesis
Proposal detailing the work I had undergone during the first two years of my PhD and what I aimed to
accomplish in the final year.

rasc_paper.pdf (Nov 2004) :: This is my first publication.
It details work I have undergone in building a qualitative reasoning engine with parallel optimisations to
allow it to run on a multi-processor machine or in a distributed computing environment.

1stYrReport.pdf (July 2004) :: This
is a report for assessment on completion of my first year on my PhD. It
explains the work I have undertook and also outlines the planned work for the
final two years of my PhD.

ipv6.pdf (May 2003) :: This is a report on
the findings of a short-term project setting up a department to be ipv6
compatible. The new protocol offers many advantages over its predecessor.
This document also describes how to set up ipv6 on Mac OS, Linux, Solaris and
Windows aswell as setting up some commercial software to use the protocol.

chargefinder.pdf (May 2002) :: This is a report
handed in as part of my 5th year continuous assessment. The document
details how to find the charge within an electric field using the finite
difference method and gives the source code for a program to do this written in MATLAB.

drillcuttings.pdf (May 2002)
:: This is the
report for a group project undertaken as part of my 5th year course. The
document investigates many possible solutions to clearing drill cuttings from
the seabed - a very large scale problem in the North Sea and many other
locations. A possible design is then detailed in-depth with costings and
feasibility reports.

correctbyconstruction.pdf
(Dec 2001) :: This is a scientific paper handed in as part of my 5th year continuous
assessment. The document describes research I completed to investigate
possible techniques to design communications protocols which are provably
correct (Incomplete, a reference missing - cant find my final copy)

optimisation.pdf (Dec 2001) :: This is a report
handed in as part of my 5th year continuous assessment. The document looks
at methods of optimisation and a new algorithm based on the simplex algorithm is
devised. The algorithm is compared to an exhaustive search for a
2-variable problem. Source code is included to demonstrate the new
algorithm working using MATLAB. A users guide is also included to
understand how to use the software.

watermarking.pdf (Oct 2001) :: This is a
scientific paper handed in as part of my 5th year continuous assessment.
The document looks at problems in digital communications with respect to
unauthorised copying and alleged ownership. A technique of watermarking is
discussed and several mathematical algorithms are discussed for watermarking and
their effectiveness against attacks.

dummynet.pdf (Sep 2001) :: This is a report as part
of my research undertaken for ERG. The document details how to use Unix
and install necessary software for continuing research in this area. The
TCP and HTTP protocols are discussed briefly and tests were undertaken to
illustrate differences in the different versions of the protocols. The
research was part of a project concerned with slow-lossy satellite
communications links. To achieve this in a lab, a program called dummynet
was used.

mp3design.pdf (Nov 2000) :: This is a report handed
in as part of my 3rd year continuous assessment. The document looks at the
mp3 format in detail and how compression is achieved. A RISC design is
then detailed for a possible mp3 player.
